Solution
The boy feels very sad after losing his ball. He stands still and shaken, looking at the place where it fell into the water. The ball had been with him for a long time, so it was special to him. When it falls into the water, it brings back many memories of his childhood.
The poet does not offer him money to buy a new ball because he wants the boy to understand an important lesson. Through this loss, the boy is learning how to face life’s difficulties. He is beginning to understand that losing things is a part of life. Everyone has to deal with losses and move on. This experience will teach him to be strong and accept that some things, once lost, cannot be brought back.
